It's obviously a CEO selling his own product so not much to comment on. There is definitely a place for both headsets. The main part I laugh at though is him complaining about a slight motion blur in Vision Pro when moving your head quickly when the quest 3 has the most insane picture warping ever in passthrough mode around the hands and edges of the screen.

It’s a shame he isn’t in a position to speak honestly. Seems like the Vision Pro is a massively better product, but the price tag reflects it.

Though being a semi open platform is probably a huge benefit for the quest. If you want to play games, the video pro is pretty useless and probably always will be given apples track record with gaming.

I'm a VR/AR doubter.

Both of these products won't change the world, and will probably wither on the vine. Most people can't afford this stuff and it doesn't actually solve a problem. It more tickles a desire for novelty. I'm not saying they won't sell a lot of this stuff, I just don't see it being a mainstream item ever.

I could be wrong, but Zuck is just trying to save his ~billions he's wasted on the metaverse.

The first question would be: do you have a VR headset with 10 games / programs in it?

If not then you are not doubter. You can have doubts, express them, but if you do not tried VR headset for several days I would say such opinion would not be worth much.

I use quest often just to work out. I am lazy and I do not want to go to the gym. I start pistol whip and after a few minutes I feel much better. It can be a demanding game for my spine.

Experiences in VR are not experiences that could be observed on a flat screen. It is different to move a player in a game, and to climb a nearly lifelike skyscraper. It is different to play a diablo, and be surprised when skeleton attacks you from behind.

Do you have an opinion on the future of consumer computing? Do you think we'll be using laptops in 2064? Genuinely curious.

iPad is about 30 billion in revenue each year.

For a device that even now many people would question what problem it solves.
